One to one online session work with emotions and healing past trauma on all levels, specifically childhood abuse and trauma. I work directly with subconscious behavioural and emotional patterns to identify original patterns causing disharmony and pain, whether that be physical pain (disease, injury, chronic pain), Emotional Pain (Depression, Anxiety) or Mental Pain (Overthinking, Insomnia).
I believe that happiness starts with the first step towards change and an understanding that healing and growth is a process of the movement of energy. My entire business is structured around "A Self Empowered Approach To Health." This means I want to empower you to heal yourself by giving you the tools to do this, both on a conscious and subconscious level.

Expressive arts therapy, eco therapy/nature healing, and a combination of both, available to children, adolescents, adults, and small groups.
Eco Art therapy is a gentle way to work on habitual patterns of thought and behaviour which are causing disharmony, to reduce anxiety levels, to attend to trauma, to build self-confidence/sense of agency, develop communication/emotional intelligence and social skills, and to learn new ways of regulating the nervous system.
At Innerbloom Art Therapy, we combine the arts and nature into psychotherapy (talk-therapy), offering opportunities to connect to the natural world, to develop self-awareness through exploration, expression, and growth.
Combining nature into the creative process, clients may explore new ways of considering different situations and gain new perspectives that help them to move forward into the future with a healthier self & world-view.
Within a nurturing therapeutic relationship, expressive arts offer a way to connect to the Self, and to communicate in ways which often cannot be put into words through visual art-making, sand-play, sculpting, ephemeral eco-art, drama, play-based, and movement modalities.
Trauma-informed, client-centred services are NDIS eligible for clients who are self or plan managed, where-by together we may develop a tailor-made therapeutic plan for individual sessions that attend to both plan and personal goals.
While I am not a registered NDIS provider at this stage, services are NDIS eligible for plans that are self-managed or managed by a support coordinator.
I also offer zoom sessions and can offer in-person sessions at an indoor location.

WWL is about bringing humans and animals together in a safe and meaningful way.
There's lots to be learnt from animals, we just have to slow down and appreciate the process.
As a Social Worker, I offer counselling, as well as opportunities and activities with animals, nature... and just a place to be heard, feel safe, and be yourself. Sometimes that's the most important of all.
Appointments are held on-site. Generally no outreach or tele-health, but not out of the question.

Over the years, Phillip and Ewan’s working relationship grew into a lifelong friendship, and the holidays they shared together became the moments Ewan looked forward to most. Those trips (the planning, the anticipation, and the joy of getting out and doing something meaningful) planted the original idea for BucketList Dreamtime. Phillip Brown, a mate who helped shape the heart of what this business stands for.
Phillip showed, through everyday life and the trips shared together, how powerful it is to have the right support to get out into the world and enjoy it fully. With gratitude and respect, Ewan credits Phillip as the inspiration behind BucketList Dreamtime.
